A hair bag (noun) is a small fabric or leather pouch designed to hold hair, typically used during the 18th century to keep powdered wigs in place. For example, fashionable men often carried their hair bags when not wearing wigs.
Hair bags played a significant role in hairstyling during that period, offering convenience and protection for wigs. Additionally, they contributed to the distinctive aesthetics of Rococo fashion. Historians believe the use of hair bags originated in France and later spread throughout Europe.
